AND the idea-Longley advances that Barret
is responsible because he issued the orders
well, we pale before that one and grant it. 81
far he may be responsible, but as Auditor he i:
clerk Of the board of Commissioners, and or
their vote directing him to do so issued these
orders. He is guilty, probably, so far as that
goes, but there is not clerical officer in Bel
mont or any other county who will go behind q
superiors order-not even the immaculate
Longley, in whose opinion Belmont county
never had but one efficient, trustworthy official
and he in the Auditors Office one term back in
the seventies. The ignorant, perjured people
of Belmont county," so called by this great
man, failed to see it that way, and defeated
him for second term.-Gszette.
We print this paragraph to show the
insincerity and stupidity of the Demo
cratic organ. The above relates TO
orders drawn in favor of the Commits
sioners. They have nothing whatever
to do with their allowances. They are
not authorized to "vOte" directing the
Auditor to pay them anything whatever
They make bills for their services. which
have to be approved by the Prosecuting
Attorney and certified by the Probate
Judge. Upon these certificates the
Auditor is authorized to draw his war
rant upon the treasury; but they are
not conclusive. If the Auditor knows
the claims are unlawful, it is not only
his right but his duty to refuse to draw
warrants for their payment. "Longley'
refused in two instances when Auditor
to draw warrants upon the treasury in
payment of claims against the county
which had been allowed by the Com.
missioners. One of them was a bill of
the Gazette, and the other of Sheriff
Hays. He was threatened with man
damus proceedings, but the mandamus
never materialized.
Neither this paper nor "Longley" have
used the words Ignorant, perjured peo
pie of Belmont county" nor words that
can be tortured into that meaning.

A Word About Catarrh.

ut is the mucous membrane, that wonderful semi
fluid evelope surrounding the delicate tissues of the
air and food passages that Catarrh makes its strong
hold once established it eats into the very vitals
and renders life but long-drawn breath of misery
and disease dulling the sense of hearing, tramme-
ling the power of speech, destroying the faculty of
smell tainting the breath and killing the refined
pleasures of taste; insdiously by creapng on from
simple cold in the head, it assais the mem branous
lining and envelopes the bones, eating through the
delicate coats and causing inflammation sloughing
and death; nothing short of total eradication will
secure health to the patient and all alternative are
simply procrastinated sutferings leading to fatal
termination. Sanford's Radical cure by inhalation
and by internal administration, has never failed;
even when the disease has made frghtful nroads on
delicate constitutions, hearing smell and taste have
been recovered and disease Thoroughly driven out"
sANFoRD's RADICAL CURE meets every phase of
Catarrh from simple head cold TO the most loath-
some and destructive stages 1t is local and consti-
tutional Instant in relieving, permanent in curing
safe, economical and never-failing.
Each package contains one bottle of the Radical
Cure, one box Catarrhal Resolvent and an Improved
Inhaler, with treatise; price, 81.

JUDGE MoILvAlNE was accounted a
pretty good jurist. He thought an otii'
Ger of the law who valued bank shares
for taxation at par, instead of their
"true value In money" violated his
sworn duty. What would he have to
say Of an officer OF the law who valued
the shares at only 55lS per cent. of their
par value?

WHAT do the farmers aud the men

what the organ of our late wonderful

about 55 per cent. of their par value. No
